Franchisor Environmental Liability For Previously Contaminated Property, Patrick J. Kaufmann, William S. Vincent
Franchisor Environmental Liability For Previously Contaminated Property, Patrick J. Kaufmann, William S. Vincent
Faculty and Research Publications
Environmental legislation has created potential liability for retailing franchisees that purchase previously contaminated land. Faced with a decision to distance itself from the site selection process or incur the added costs and potential pricing impacts of greater involvement in the process, franchisors have strong incentives to reduce franchisee support. This reduction in support has detrimental implications for both franchise policy and environmental policy. A paper reports the results of an empirical study that links franchisors' concerns about potential environmental liability to actions to distance themselves from the site selection process or, alternatively, formally to require franchisee environmental investigation of all …

Corporate Regulation In Australia: Fact Or Fiction, K. Cooper
Corporate Regulation In Australia: Fact Or Fiction, K. Cooper
Faculty of Business - Accounting & Finance Working Papers
This paper recognises and takes as given there is a recurring cycle of regulatory failure, regulatory reform. It also accepts the arguments of a small number of authors that there are flaws within the regulatory mechanism which contribute to the perpetuation of the regulatory failure, regulatory reform cycle.

The regulatory framework is weak in very fundamental and strategic areas including the nature of legislation and accounting standards, enforcement and overall administration. The fact that these weaknesses are not adequately addressed or rectified suggests that …
